Maxine Waters: Kanye West Talking ‘Out of Turn,’ ‘Should Think Twice About Politics’
Breitbart ^ | 1 May 2018 | by Tony Lee

Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) reportedly blasted musician Kanye West on Monday evening for talking “out of turn” when asked about West’s recent praise for President Donald Trump. “Kanye West is a very creative young man who has presented some of the most revolutionary material in the African-American community. … But we also think that sometimes Kanye West talks out of turn and perhaps sometimes he needs some assistance in helping him to formulate some of his thoughts,” Waters at an Oakland event with members of the Congressional Black Caucus that pushed for more diversity in Silicon Valley. “We don’t think that he actually means to do harm, but we’re not sure he really understands the impact of what he’s saying, at the time that he’s saying it and how that weighs on, particularly the African American community – and for young people in general. … And I think maybe he should think twice about politics, and maybe not have so much to say.”

West created a firestorm last week when he tweeted that the “mob” cannot make him not love his “brother” Trump.

“You don’t have to agree with trump but the mob can’t make me not love him. We are both dragon energy,” West tweeted. “He is my brother. I love everyone. I don’t agree with everything anyone does. That’s what makes us individuals. And we have the right to independent thought.”

Trump thanked West for his complimentary tweet soon after Breitbart News White House Correspondent Charlie Spiering asked White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders last week at a press briefing whether Trump had recently communicated with the musician.

I believe that she is playing the traditional role of House N* on the Democrat plantation - explaining to those in the field how to behave for whitey.

So...whites cannot practice slavery upon blacks, but blacks can impose it on other blacks? Like..telling a guy he’s not smart enough to talk, he must wait until his overseers tell him how to think before he can comment? Isn’t there a law against that? Oh, wait..double standards..I keep forgetting about them!

Oh Maxine, do shut up, put on one of your biggest hats and just blow away!!

Maxine Waters basically said, “Negro best get his head straight and get his ass back on the democrat porch!”

“...he needs some assistance in helping him to formulate some of his thoughts,”

Sounds like a veiled threat to me.

“Creative YOUNG man”

Gosh Maxine you could have just called him “boy” as that is the disrespect you intended by calling him a “young man”.

I don’t think Kanye is a conservative, but just damn democrats. You’re letting everyone know how communist you really are. I hope they keep talking telling everyone they can’t think for themselves. We’ve know how they really are for a long time, now they’re just showing the world.

“Talking out of turn” is a scold directed at obstreperous children. It is profoundly insulting when directed against an adult. Maxine Water’s use of the term crystallizes precisely the racist complaint made by West and others against black community leaders who empower themselves at the expense of their constituents. “Sit down and shut up” is the corollary of “talking out of turn.”

I hope Maxine and Nancy keep on talking. They are the most repulsive politicians I’ve ever seen!

Oh, I can't resist this challenge.

How about Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, Ted Kennedy, Schumer, Harry Reid, Barney Frank, John Kerry, Obama, and maybe Hitler, Lenin and Stalin?

Lets face it, when it comes to repulsive politicians you are talking about a target rich environment.

“I’ll translate Maxines’ words: “get back on the Plantation, boy”.....”

Same thing she tried to do to Diamond and Silk.
